Housing, Housing Policy, and Neighborhood Crime Rates
Fri, Nov 17, 8:00 to 9:20am, Marriott, Franklin 7, 4th FloorSession Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel
Abstract
This session addresses the housing-crime nexus in communities across the United States. Specific topics of focus include how various land use configurations, including housing, interact to produce crime, how foreclosures impact neighborhood crime rates at various spatial and temporal scales, the relationship between crime rates and home sales prices, and whether crime rates are higher or lower in gated communities. Collectively, the presentations identify key mechanisms of the housing-crime relationship, provide evidence of how housing and housing policy impact local crime rates, and offer theoretical refinements on the housing-crime nexus.
